im quite fed up of it lol, people trying to time you out by putting the black or woteva on the cushion or needing like 10 snookers, especially in original snooker tournaments.

Happened 3 times in a row, luckily i just managed to get through in time. Bad sportmanship like that really does annoy me Does any1 else have this problem?

Well the obvious solution here would be for whomever was ahead when the time runs out (assuming the frames are level) to go through.

With a double DQ only happening if a player is one frame up, but the other person is ahead on points when the time expires..

Do you mean, for example, that if playerx has a score of 14 and playery had a score of 21, then playery should go through if the time expires?

Sounds good to me spinner.

Still wouldn't mind a call game button for ranked games.

Thing is with a call game button, if you're playing the type who wont concede of thier own free will, they're unlikely to agree to your request anyway..

But there should be no need for a request if only the black remained
